Police Check in Vancouver?

[biglos 0]

Hahaha...I know now! Didn't discover the forum til after we started the process...

I guess I gotta go spend more money!

Thanks so much!

I'm in Vancouver and had to have my criminal record check done here...

(Not sure if it matters, or changes what they do, but we DCF'd...)

I had to go to the police station on Main Street (near Hastings...GREAT area :-))...

Go in the main entrance and take a left...

You'll have to line-up along the wall (unless there's no line...but there was a pretty long one when I went!)...

There's a form on a counter near the line-up that you'll have to fill in...

I also brought my letter requesting that I get a criminal record check done...when I got up to the counter, the lady took it and photocopied it.

Then I signed some stuff and paid -- and was done!

Now, on another note, I actually had to go to that same police station waaay back in February or so as I was going through a legal name change and in BC you need get fingerprinted for that. And the police station on Main St does do that! That's where I got mine done anyway...

Good luck!

I'm in the lower mainland, too, Sim. You don't need to go to the police station to get the checks done.

No -- I know!

I was just saying it's an option, that they DO offer that!
